My son found it very interesting and challenging to build than the architecture series of Dubai we recently bought.It has a lot of gears and intricate little pieces which are fascinating to see how it was put together. We did a few live streams about the whole building process — about 5 hours!It is very educational for kids. IMO, LEGO Technic series is the best of all!
The crane arrived perfectly and was very quickly assembled. It was really great to see the children's eyes light up. Unfortunately, as always with LEGO, the price is quite high. I think it's a shame, because every child should be able to play with LEGO.
Good product and quite entertaining. I would buy other models.
Excellent product, I'm a big fan of LEGO Technic, it was very easy and fun to assemble. I love it.
As always!! LEGO Technic taking care of even the smallest details. I really liked it and it kept me entertained for a whole afternoon (building it). As for the size, when fully unfolded, it takes up quite a bit of space and includes numerous moving parts based on gear sets. In the pictures, it looks smaller than it actually is. In terms of difficulty, for those who already know LEGO Technic, it's no more difficult than forgetting something at some point due to rushing. For beginners, it might not be the best option, but it's not bad either because you quickly get the hang of assembling the pieces. I'm not sure if the price is appropriate for the product, but you have to consider the many hours of ingenuity that a person had to dedicate to creating this LEGO. In conclusion, LEGO Technic is a must-have for any collection. Compared to other sets, it has a reasonable price, and it's very fun to build.
